Bosch BSD976 Severe Duty front brake pad set for the Toyota Tundra, Sequoia, Tacoma, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, and Lexus GX460 / GX470. Made in North America — this is Bosch's severe-duty line, purpose-built for vehicles subject to constant stop-and-go operation or carrying heavy payloads. Same platform, so this pad shape covers a huge share of full-size Toyota / Lexus SUVs and trucks.

Why Bosch Severe Duty on a Full-Size Toyota

• Made for heavy payloads and constant stop-and-go — Bosch's Severe Duty compound has a higher operating temperature range than the standard QuietCast line
• North American engineering and manufacturing — no offshore friction material of unknown composition
• OE-style multilayer shims — reduce squeal and vibration on Tundra / Sequoia / 4Runner where noise transmission from a big front caliper is easy to hear
• Long service life — severe-duty compound resists heat fade and glazing that kills semi-metallic OE pads early
• Bosch OE heritage — Bosch supplies OE brake components to Toyota, Lexus, and most global automakers
• Right choice for towing, trailering, and off-road daily use — the pad the fleet shops stock for full-size Toyota work trucks

Install Notes

• Torque caliper bracket bolts per Tundra / Sequoia / Tacoma service spec for your specific year and trim
• Apply the included synthetic brake grease to slider pins and abutment clip contact points - not the pad face
• Bed severe-duty semi-metallic pads with more break-in cycles than ceramic: 12-15 medium stops from 40 to 10 mph, then 3-4 harder stops from 60 to 15 mph
• Replace both left and right pads at the same time
• Semi-metallic pads may produce slightly more brake dust than ceramic - normal for the compound
